Chapter 364: Encountering Bandits
“We’ve been walking for so long. When will we get out of this dense forest?”
“The place we’re going to is at the easternmost part of the Hundred Thousand Mountain. It’s about a few days’ journey away.”
“I suddenly feel that… staying in the sect isn’t so bad after all…”
After traveling day and night, Victor and his group finally arrived at the Hundred Thousand Mountain.
However, they were at the westernmost part of the Hundred Thousand Mountain. They had to cross the entire Hundred Thousand Mountain to reach their destination.
The distance between them was not any shorter than the distance between the Eastern Plains and the Fire Sect at all.
In fact, for such a long journey, they should have applied to the sect for a mount to conserve leg strength. However, Nalan Lengling already had a spiritual crane, and Lin Yiya just happened to forget about it. There was nothing they could do. To speed up the process, they could only travel day and night.
After a day and night, everyone was physically and mentally exhausted. After discussing with Nalan Lengling, they planned to rest for a while.
However, at that moment…
“I’ve cleared the mountain and the trees. If you want to pa.s.s by, leave some money!”
A loud shout rang out, and several figures suddenly appeared in front of Victor and the others.
When they looked closely, they saw a group of bandits entrenched on the top of the mountain. They were self-proclaimed kings. Of course, the most common type of bandits in the Hundred Thousand Mountain were the demonic beasts that were everywhere. Those that flew in the sky, those that ran on the ground, and those that swam in the water were the kings of the Hundred Thousand Mountain!
Outside of the Hundred Thousand Mountain, cultivators who had lost their families and had a certain level of ability would end up wandering around and becoming bandits.
Of the Hundred Thousand Mountain, the most famous was the Yellow Springs Bandit Clan from the mountain range of the Yellow Springs!
Their power was something that even some of the top sects could not compare to!
It was said that the leader of the Yellow Springs Bandit Clan was in the soul formation realm, and was very powerful!
It was because of her that the Hundred Thousand Mountain became a haven for bandits!
Countless bandits had gathered in the Hundred Thousand Mountain because of her. The leader of the Yellow Springs Bandit Clan was a righteous person and would help anyone who was a fellow bandit.
In her opinion, the reason why the bandits were bandits was because they were all unhappy people. Some of them were people who had fallen to the ends of the earth, so there was no need for them to personally know each other.
It was also because of this that, compared to demonic beasts, bandits were enemies in the Hundred Thousand Mountain that cultivators did not want to encounter!
There were many of them, and their strength varied. However, there was no lack of core formation experts among them.
Furthermore, many of the bandits were connected to each other. If one of them was killed, it was very likely that the other bandits would take revenge.
The bandits were oddly united. Usually, when one side was in trouble, the other side would support them from all directions.
Therefore, having encountered bandits, most people would choose to pacify with money, and prevent causing too much trouble.
Unfortunately, they met Nalan Lengling.
Nalan Lengling’s temper was evident. As long as she was not provoked, Nalan Lengling would never meddle in other people’s business.
However, if the other party stopped Nalan Lengling, they would become her mortal enemy. This had always been the case.
“Three minutes. I’ll give you three minutes. Hurry up and scram. Otherwise, you’ll have to bear the consequences.”
There was no need to explain Nalan Lengling’s strength. With the strength at the intermediate stage of the core formation realm, she outshone ordinary people. Only Victor could firmly suppress her.
On the other hand, the other party was only at the third stage of the spiritual pedestal realm, and the rest were foundation establishment dregs. They were not even worth mentioning.
“Yo! Big brother! There’s a girl!”
“Third brother! Be careful! We’re bandits, not flower pickers! We only rob money, not…”
Before he could finish, the leader looked at Victor and the others. Nalan Lengling, Nalan Xinxin, and Lin Yiya were all real beauties, and their temperaments were all different. A group of bandits who had been surrounded by ordinary women all their lives. How could they have seen such beautiful women before?
It was only because of Lian Hua’s disguise. Otherwise, with her seductive abilities, even Victor would not be able to resist her, let alone these bandits?
Therefore, when the leader saw the faces of Nalan Lengling and the others, he was stunned on the spot. After a long time, he recovered and said, “No… rape… f*ck… f*ck!”
“Boss! What a beautiful woman…”
“If I can sleep one of them tonight, I will no longer have any regrets in life…”
After seeing the faces of Nalan Lengling and the others, the group of bandits became l.u.s.tful and revealed obscene smiles.
However, at this moment, Victor could clearly feel the killing intent from Nalan Lengling.
Nalan Lengling thought herself to be high and mighty. Usually, who would dare to say such filthy words in front of her?
Now, these people had brought this upon themselves.
“Three minutes have pa.s.sed. It’s time for your death.”
Nalan Lengling was expressionless, and there was no joy or sorrow in her tone. However, judging from the spiritual power that she had unleashed, she was really angry.
With Nalan Lengling’s strength, she only needed 30% of her strength to kill all the bandits in front of her instantly!
However, how could Nalan Lengling only use 30% of her strength?
She attacked with all her strength!
When her spiritual power gushed out, a monstrous flame swept over, and the scorching high temperature instantly enveloped everyone. Nalan Lengling’s mastery of fire magic was not inferior to Victor’s!
“Wait! Wait a minute!”
Until this moment, the bandits suddenly realized that they had met a tough nut to crack!
“Wait a minute, my lord is familiar with the leader of the Yellow Springs Bandit Clan! If you kill me, my lord will not let you go!”
“What does that have to do with me?”
Nalan Lengling snorted and used her qi to draw the flames and devour them!
At the sight of the seemingly alive flames in the air that were devouring all the bandits in front of him, Victor frowned slightly.
Although the bandits were all scoundrels who committed all kinds of crimes and killing them a thousand times or ten thousand times would not be considered excessive. However, Nalan Lengling’s attacks were still too ruthless.
She could have dealt with all of this clearly and cleanly, but she just had to burn those bandits to ashes and let them endure the torment.
However, Victor was not some saint-like b*tch. He had no need to offend Nalan Lengling for the sake of some irrelevant people.
However…
“In this Hundred Thousand Mountain, compared to demonic beasts, we really shouldn’t provoke bandits.”
“I understand. Don’t worry. I know what to do. Those who can have a relationship with the Yellow Springs Bandit Clan are at least at the core formation realm. A mere spiritual pedestal realm isn’t enough to enter that person’s eyes.”
“It’s good that you’re clear about the situation.”
Victor believed that Nalan Lengling was not an impulsive person. However, she was a woman after all. It was her nature to be irritable.
“In short, let’s leave this place quickly. Otherwise, it will be very troublesome if there are other bandits coming.”
“Okay.”
Since things had come to this, there was no time to rest. Everyone set off again and headed toward their destination.
However, even Victor did not notice that a peculiar red had flashed in the shadows.
